I build identity and trust systems, and now the AI inside them
Fourteen years across digital identity, compliant crypto, medical and IoT. These days a lot of that is putting AI into products where a wrong answer has consequences. Sometimes the engineer, sometimes the founder.

Work with me
I take on a few outside engagements a year: identity and systems work, or AI where a wrong answer has consequences. Recently that's meant an OID4VP verifier interop-tested against the official EUDI Reference Wallet, and a GLEIF vLEI to IOTA DID bridge with keys that never leave the browser. Selected work has the rest.
